I am on my second day/dose today and I was wondering if I would start breathing better later today? I had a miserable night last night, had to sleep sitting up.

I have company coming over tomorrow and I so want feel better.

Thanks and wish everyone a happy memorial day.

Depends on how bad your symptoms are and what dosage of meds you are on. I usually get relief within a few days. It is usually back under control by the time I finish the round of meds.

After the second day I do not notice any relief. Glad to know it may take another day or two. thanks

Dont worry there are times I have had to have it for upto 6 weeks as the first couple of courses dont always work very well and its usually this time of year it hits me hardest.
